I am finally Dr Dold! Being a "doctor of #Outlander" is already amazing. I can't wait to see how my life develops from here. Follow along on instagram (Alex.dold.historian) or check out my website https://t.co/4W7x5rqUs5

Really enjoying the #PGconference on the topic of re-reading @UofGSMLC. It was a pleasure to present my paper on the foreshadowing strategies in @Writer_DG's Outlander novels yesterday. Continuing today with more interesting papers and meeting inspiring researchers.

Join our PGR student, @AlexDold, today (Tue 15 Oct 7.15pm (BST)) for this event at @FOHigLib! The talk focuses on intertextuality — a concept that explores how books, movies & other works of art echo, reference, or transform each other. Joining link & details in original post ⬇️

Been waiting for an important call which in the end didn't get through due to network issues. @O2 stop telling me my connection is fine if it clearly isn't. Also, please offer an option to chat with a member of staff rather than calling which I obviously can't!!

[Dr Alex Dold @AlexDold]

@SallyTuckett Thanks! Durie was a good start already, will look into Clyde and the exhibition catalogue. I just found an article by Katja Jylkka on the Loch ness monster narrative which is very helpful, too

[Dr Alex Dold @AlexDold]

Does anybody know any academic sources about tourism to Loch Ness? Preferably something that explores when it started and how it got more and more popular to visit #outlanderscholar #history #tourism

[Dr Alex Dold @AlexDold]

I have been trying for months to get (affordable) tickets to see @taylorswift13 in Edinburgh this weekend but it might be time to admit that it won't happen and go back to #phdlife instead of listening to all her albums.

World Outlander Day falls on June 1 each year with fans the world over paying tribute to the epic love story between Jamie (played by Sam Heughan ) & Claire Fraser (Caitriona Balfe ). This was the date Diana Gabaldon published her first novel way back in 1991 #WorldOutlanderDay

[Dr Alex Dold @AlexDold]

Happy World #Outlander Day! Celebrating the day by not working on my #PhD but spending time with family (and their new puppy) in the Highlands. #outlanderscholar #phdlife

[Inverness Outlanders TM @InverOutlanders]

Happy World Outlander Day! 🌟✨ Celebrating the Fraser clan's incredible journey and looking forward to more adventures. Outlander Season 7B continues this November! Slàinte mhath! 🥂 #WorldOutlanderDay #Outlander #Season7B #FrasersForever @Outlander_STARZ @mgmplus+ UK

Thoroughly enjoyed (and inspired by) our @UHIHistory postgrad research gathering today in Dornoch, hosted by @HillofFear and featuring the research of @MrCameronHist, @AlexDold, @MelanieMMcKay, @peterjnoble1, and many others. Great to bring our outstanding PGR community together.

[Dr Alex Dold @AlexDold]

@kirsteenMM Philip Paris's The Last Witch of Scotland is great, really enjoyed that
